A 13-win season and a division title provide 'a sturdy platform' for the Jaguars moving forward

The Jacksonville Jaguars came up short against Buffalo, losing 27-24 in a wild-card game that featured 28 points and four lead changes in the fourth quarter alone

Quiet finish to regular season Allen played 10 offensive snaps during Sunday's 41-7 win against the Titans.

Impact After working as Jacksonville's No. 2 tailback the previous two games, the 2025 seventh-round pick was relegated to the No. 3 job Sunday since Bhayshul Tuten (finger) returned from an injury. Allen played in all 17 regular-season games as a rookie, carrying 23 times for 94 yards and catching 10 of 11 targets for 54 yards while also racking up 617 return yards. Starter Travis Etienne is scheduled to hit free agency during the offseason, so Jacksonville's backfield could be in flux for 2026. Allen is likely to be back after his rookie campaign but may not have a significant role.

One carry in Week 17 Allen returned two kickoffs for 58 yards and rushed once for three yards during Sunday's 23-17 win over the Colts.

Impact The 2025 seventh-round pick operated as the Jaguars' No. 2 running back for the second consecutive week while Bhayshul Tuten (finger) was sidelined during Sunday's win. However, this didn't translate to an increase in production, as Allen received just one offensive touch. Through 16 appearances this season, Allen has rushed 23 times for 94 yards and caught 10 of 11 targets for 54 yards. Additionally, he's recorded 617 kick-return yards. Expect the rookie to continue serving as one of Jacksonville's top kick returners in the Week 18 matchup against the Titans.

Four touches in No. 2 role Allen rushed four times for 10 yards and returned three kickoffs for 73 yards during Sunday's 34-20 win against the Broncos.

Impact The rookie seventh-round pick stepped into the No. 2 backfield role with Bhayful Tuten (finger) sidelined, and Allen played 21 of 70 offensive snaps. Starter Travis Etienne dominated the backfield work with 20 touches, and that's a trend that's likely to continue during the final two weeks of the regular season, with Allen working as the primary backup as long as Tuten is out.

Impact Allen has regularly handled the No. 3 backfield role behind Tuten this year, but across 14 regular-season appearances he's looked solid in limited opportunities. On the season, Allen has carried the ball 18 times for 81 yards and secured 10 of 11 targets for 54 yards, while also piling up 486 yards as a kick returner. Head coach Liam Coen praised Allen as a player who "runs violently and has taken care of the football," while quarterback Trevor Lawrence expressed confidence that the rookie seventh-round pick will "take this opportunity, run with it, and play well." That said, Allen's first opportunity to show what he's capable of in the No. 2 role will come versus a stingy Denver defense, so it may be prudent not to set expectations too high.

Jaguars' Travis Etienne on a TD tear in what could be his final season in Jacksonville

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne has been durable and dependable over the last four seasons

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • Associated Press

Five touches in blowout win Allen carried four times for 11 yards, caught his lone target for five yards and returned one kickoff for 50 yards during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets.

Impact The rookie seventh-round pick played 18 offensive snaps, with most of his touches coming with Jacksonville leading comfortably during the fourth quarter. Allen continues to see sporadic playing time as a passing-down back but has received more than two offensive touches in just two games this season.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Two catches in win Allen caught both his targets for eight yards and returned two kickoffs for 52 yards during Sunday's 36-19 win against the Colts.

Impact The rookie seventh-round pick's 16 offensive snaps were his highest total since Week 10, though he didn't see much action until the fourth quarter of the blowout victory. No. 2 tailback Bhayshul Tuten had a reduced role after losing a fumble in the second quarter, but starter Travis Etienne soaked up most of those reps. Allen could step into the backup job if Tuten continues to have issues with ball security, but Allen appears locked into the No. 3 job for now.

One carry Week 12 Allen carried once for two yards during Sunday's 27-24 overtime win against the Cardinals.

Impact The rookie seventh-round pick totaled eight carries for 36 yards in Week 11's blowout victory, but he was minimally involved In Sunday's overtime win. Allen remains locked in as Jacksonville's No. 3 tailback behind Travis Etienne and Bhayshul Tuten.

NOVEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Garners eight garbage-time carries Allen rushed eight times for 36 yards and returned two kickoffs for 55 yards during Sunday's 35-6 win against the Chargers.

Impact Travis Etienne and Bhayshul Tuten (ankle) combined for 34 carries, with Allen stepping in for mop-up duty during the final drive of the blowout victory. Allen has played double-digit snaps in all but one game this season, but Sunday's contest was the first time he received more than two touches. The rookie seventh-round pick could move up to No. 2 on the depth chart if Tuten is forced to miss some time, but Allen still wouldn't be likely to see much action if Etienne remains healthy.

NOVEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Plays season-high 22 snaps Allen had one carry for 10 yards and caught his only target for one yard during Sunday's 30-29 win against the Raiders.

Impact The 21-year-old played a season-high 22 offensive snaps but was significantly less involved than fellow rookie tailback Bhayshul Tuten, who had 10 touches on 20 snaps. Allen has played double-digit offensive snaps in seven of eight games this year but has just five carries for 32 yards and six receptions for 35 yards. He appears locked in as the Jaguars' No. 3 running back behind Tuten and starter Travis Etienne.

NOVEMBER 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Zero touches in MNF win Allen didn't record a touch in the Jaguars' win over the Chiefs on Monday night.

Impact Allen played 13 offensive snaps but didn't register a rushing attempt or see a target in the passing game. He has extremely minimal fantasy value while Travis Etienne and Bhayshul Tuten are healthy.

OCTOBER 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Makes one catch vs. 49ers Allen caught his only target for seven yards in Sunday's 26-21 win over the 49ers.

Impact The rookie running back from Syracuse now hasn't received a carry in consecutive weeks, despite playing 32 offensive snaps during that span. Allen played fewer offensive snaps than backfield mates Bhayshul Tuten (18) and Travis Etienne (39) in Sunday's win, suggesting he currently remains the No. 3 RB in Jacksonville. The 21-year-old is likely to remain involved in Jacksonville's offense ahead of a Week 5 matchup against the Chiefs, playing primarily on passing downs.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Targeted once in win Allen secured his only target for nine yards during Sunday's 17-10 win over Houston.

Impact Allen handled 21 of 70 offensive snaps versus the Texans, working ahead of Bhayshul Tuten (12 snaps). That workload split was in large part due to the heavy ratio of passing situations that confronted Jacksonville's offense Week 3, which favor Allen's change-of-pace skill set. Allen will remain involved in a No. 3 backfield role Week 4 against the 49ers, but Tuten is still the primary backup to Travis Etienne.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Looks solidified as No. 3 RB Allen rushed twice for 13 yards during Jacksonville's 31-27 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

Impact Allen took a step back to fellow rookie Bhayshul Tuten (eight carries for 42 yards, two catches for 32 yards and a score) in Week 2 after having handled more snaps than him Week 1. In the wake of Jacksonville trading Tank Bigsby, Tuten looks entrenched as the No. 2 man behind Travis Etienne, with Allen having lost out on the backup competition but still facing opportunities for change-of-pace touches as the No. 3 man. The rookie seventh-round pick will work to keep making the most of his depth role Week 3 against the Texans.

SEPTEMBER 9, 2025 • BLACKANDTEAL.COM

Minor role in debut Allen carried once for seven yards and caught his lone target for four yards during Sunday's 26-10 win against the Panthers.

Impact The rookie seventh-round pick received both his touches during the first half and played just nine offensive snaps in his professional debut. Allen played a few more snaps than fellow rookie Bhayshul Tuten, but the specifics are a bit of a moot point after the Jaguars traded No. 2 tailback Tank Bigsby to the Eagles on Monday. Travis Etienne is entrenched as the starter, but it appears Allen and Tuten will now compete for the backup job as the only other running backs currently on the roster.
